Mchwalt, engineer of the; Portland Fire Department, lie brought with him the finest lot of building hardware that ever came to this" valley, all the trimmings being nickel-plated, including butts, drawers, balls, sash ocks, sasli-bulls and lifts, in fact everything for fitting up tho interior of buildings. Wo hear from parties attending the Union county fair, that' no great in terest has been manifested this year. The attendance has beep very niccgre, and all classes of exhibits have been extraordinarily 'poor. We are sorry thjs is a fact, but tho management of thp fairs, pf lato years, has brought about tho result. There must be some incentivo given, or those who have good exhibits will not spend their time and money in attendance upon a fair that amounts to aJmo3t a farce. Tho Daily Sago Brush states that the Pino Creek mines lie 47 miles north-west 6f Baker Citj Wfo might attribute Such a statement to its ignor ance of tho geographical location of them, wcro it not for the fact that it holds out tho idea that they aro only 17 miles from Baker City. We doubt if an air lino from Baker to the mines would fall under that distance, for her stages to the mines have to travel not less than 75 mijes to reach Cornuco pia, the Pine terminus. In a fow weeks there will be a very interesting serial story from tho pen of the popular novtlest, Jules Vorno, author of "Tho Mvsterious Island," "Around the World'in Eitihty. Days" and "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea," etc, published jn the Scout. The sto ries when completed, will form his new novel, which will not be published in book form till sometime during the winter. Those who wish to read this very interesting novej would do wclhto subscribe for the Scout, immediately, as tho price of subscription is.nd- more than the book will cost, besides you get tho county news. On Wednesday of last week Mrs. S. M. Yoran and Mrs. M.J.Thompson, of Eugene City, were outriding, when, on turning a corner, they unexpectedly came in near proximity to William Horn's traction engine, which was standing in tho street, propelling a saw in Dr. Geary's back yard. ' A large amount of steam was blown off just as tjicy wero turning the corner, which so frightened the horso as to render him unmanageable and cause him to run away, striking one of tho shade trees and throwing the occupants to the ground. Both lacjies were thrown upon ' their faces. Mrs. Yoran was considerably bruised from tho effects of tho fall, but will recover. Mrs. Thoihpsons injuries wcro such that death ensued in a few hours.

Wo wih thorn u pleasant time uud safe rot urn ,nothcr .Murder in linker ponnty, Another foul murder was commlUcd last w,vk, on Bullyxreek, at the warm firings, near the mouth of Cottonwood, in Baket ( ounty The Democrat ylvrs the following account of tho tragedy; "lwt Thursday night, a settlor at that place, named Jack son, and his partner, whoso name we aro unablo to learn, were killed while asieep, ami frs. Jackson was shot ih thchood but, wo learn, pot dangerously wounded. Jackson's partner wq sleeping in a hay stack, ntul was killed with an axe. Tho stack was then jired and the assassins pro ceeded to the lfousa yhcro the. finishing touch was put upon their pondish work. There w'crc two Other' persons on tho prom ices, quo In the house and (he other in the stable, noithcr of whom wcro molested Mr. Jackson saw t vo men leaving the yard just after the shooting but was' un aLle Jo recognise them. Tho causa Of (his tragedy Is. as yet, unknown, but it is hoped that tho investigation vljich must follow, will bring out such evidence as will glYe a clue to the murd.ereis." If seems that about three weeks previous to the murder, a tramp staid over night at Mr. Jackson's. During a conversation that evening Mr. Jackson soidihathoh.-id "done pretty well, and had accumulated sujlicicnt money to purchase . ::o head of horses." Tho day previous the murder, this Fame tramp returnud, bringing with him another man, and put up for the night. There is no doubt that he or they committed the foul crime. Wc learn that the man sua picioned of the murder, had been caught and had a hearing befuro a justice, but the justice not thinking the evidence sutllciont to bind tho man over, discharged him. He not only discharged him. but pave him money to pay his way to Baker City, where the man said he lived, and could get njany persons to vouch for his uprightness. De velopments havo prqveu that no such man resides, or ever did reside in Maker. A lieriirs posse is after him and no doubt he will be apprehended. If caught, tho chan ces are that retribution will be meted out in a speedy manlier. IiATr.i!, We learn from Mr. Oaloway, -an old resident of this county, wno was ii the vicinity of the murdor at the time, and who assisted in dressing Mrs. Jackson's wound, and also 1 card the coroner's examination, the following particulars: On tho nigjit of the murder, a man by the name of Bailey staid over night at Mr. Jackson's, also a book agent. Mr. Uailey. Mr. Jackson's boy and Mr. Johnson were sleeping at some hay stacks near the house, but in different places. Mr. Jaeke.on and wife wore (sleeping on a bedstead at tho end of the house, out qf doors, while the book peddler was lodged in the house. Mr. Johnson, a young man well known as "Tony," and who formerly drove tho stage between Summervillo and Joseph, was killed with an axe. Mr. Jackson was shot while asleep, the ball passing through his head and striking Mrs. Jackson in the fore head, glancing and following the skull around to the back part of her hoad, where ;t lodged. The book agent stated that when ho was awakened by the shot, he immediately jumped from his bed and in a few seconds Mr. Uailey appeared nt his window and told hiin for "God's sake to get up, that Jackson was killed and the stacks were on fire." TJic agent came out, saw the woman running around, wounded, and in night clothes, and hallowing for Johnson. Uailey told the agent to "go for help up tho creek to whero there wore some cow boys camped, and get help, and he would stay there and bathe tbe woman's wound." In an hour or two, four men camo to thojr assistance. Two shots were fired at the book agent wjien he got a short distance from tho houffc. Mrs. Jackson states that, she saw two men leave while she was up calling for Johnson. Bailey, after assistance had been sent for, went to tjio slack? and got (he boy out froni1' the fire; and puileh the body of Johnson out of danger This was the first that, he stated, he knew Johnson was killed. lie then went to the barn which was also on lire, cut tho horses loose, got them ami 'some harness out, and then went back to the house and dressed Mrs. Jackson's wound, The examination brought out nothing that would lead to a conviction, bill tho people of that vicinity suspicion and think Bailey is tho piurdercr. This is also Mr. Oaloway's belief, Mr. Bailey was through that country, ho claims, looking up a mail route from IJolso City to tho Harney Valley country and had passed through there about five weeks 'before. Was riding a horse hired from a livery stable in Huntington, whither ho went after tho examination. Ho stated he would take his horse back to Huntington and then he would go to Ba ker City, but on arriving at Huntington, ho took tho train, going eastward. The axo with which Johnson was killed, was a strange quo and did not belong to the place, there being only three on tho place, which the hoy procured. There aro some things which Bcom to bo decidedly against Bailey, while there aro other things equally In his favor, The affair, however, is still shrouded in mystery, but every pJPqrt Is bojng put forth by the Baker county olllcors to get a clue to the perpetrator. l)io Covo Mall.

Owing to the lotenest! of the season, the influx to the piipes is not as good as in the pa?!, and as the mines have not been sulficicrtly developed to in duce labor to any great extent, those scckpig employment do no find it a lucrative field. The work pn tho prin cipal ledges, however, is being pushed, as rapidly as possible. The. indica tions of good and extensive quantities of oro, aro ery fiattering.

Tho viewers of tho Union road havo arrived here, and nro well pleased with the practicability of tho route. Of course, we cnp't expect to do much this fall, but spring will bring its prospectors, and the natural con comitants of a large mining strike, will come. Ip fact, wo expect this camp will be a populous and busy world of itself, next season, but tiil then, we must paticntjy wait until the proper lime conies. , ,t , Tlio Sine!" I'jcd. The brilliant genius who presides over tlio La Grande Argus, last week, in an article relative td tho road from this valley to the Pine oreek mines, caps the climax, and unwittingly places himself before tho poopio in tho proper light, A column and a quarter is devoted to berating the Scow, and making the most wild an,d unreasonable assertions. Among otliors equally eilly, that "tbe mines ai;e nearer Baker city than Union, apd properly belong to Baker county," that "it would cost as much as the county indebtedness noy, to build the road, which would be of no benefit to any placo- but -the town of Union, when completed," that "tho 'trade of Pine and Eagle valleys should go to Bilker," etcoU". It is proper that questions of this kind, especially when of such importance to tho county at largo, should bo discussed, and viowd.in every light that can bo thrown upon it, and it is the. duty of public journais to do eo, in a dispas sionate and impartial manner, over looking to tlio general good. Tlio Scout is always ready to discuss all subjects pertaining to tlio public weal, and will endeavor to do so in a ration al manner,' but wo can enter into no controversy with the editor of tho Argus. It would lo a waste of timo, and folly to do so. The Vidimus which prompts his utterances is 'so apparent that it needs no lefutal. Itath'er than sec the town of Union benefitted in the remotest degree, he would givo away the piost vajuablo portion of the county, and involvo' it iq financial difficulties, which t would ta;e years to overcome Against such prejudice, unreasoning hatred, and recklessness as ho displays, reason is of no avail. Wo can only leavo hjm alone, fully convinced that it is Iho unanimous opinion of every sensible person, in La Grande, as in every other suction of tho county, that ho had bettor move his press to Balcer city, and put in his valuable services at that place "Unco James," said a Portland young lady, who waft spending a few davs in tho country, "is that chicken by tho gate a Brahim?" "No" replied Uncle James, "lie's a Leghorn." "Why, certainly, to bo sure," said tlio young Judy, "llow stupid of mo." "I can seo tho horns on his ankles." Salem Vidette' Tlio Portland juoi-chanls ought not to neglect, niiy opportunity to cultivate the most friendly relations with every portion of the country, but especially of the new piining camps, Trade opportunities, liko others, onco ne glected are oftentimes forever lost. The apparent indiferonco in estab lishing reduction works in this city is as base in point. Portland News. A. D. Pamborn, who was fined 1000 for trespassing on tho Umatilla reservation, was released yesterday afternoon, having aken tho course of tjio insolvent debtor and sworo ho was worth nothing. A prisoner in jail under fine can only bo held thirty days if such is his financial condition, and Pamborn had served his time Standard. Ono of those torriblo lights with Indians has taken placo botweon tho U. S. troops nnd tho Apaches in Ari zona, in which ono Indian was actual ly killod,and a U. S. Soldier yielded up liis life o protect his country. Tliero is nothing strango about the soldier being killed, but that an Indi an bus really been killed, eo that ho was known to bo actually dead, is truly romukablo and should bo horald ed to our posterity as such. Judgo Smith, in tho Circuit court for Multnomah, has decided that tho county must pay tho delinquent tax duo tho State from tho county. This suit was brought by tho State, to com pel Multnomah county to pay tho tax duo tho Stato on taxes for 188.1. Tho county has paid tho Stato a pro-rata of tlio taxes collected, but declined to pay tho full amount duo, when tho tux had not, nor could not he collected from the tax-jvayors. Wo bcliovo tho State totiould only require its pro-rata of tuxos collected, and not work a bard tdiip on tlio ttx-payers, to make up the dcliciuuc duo Iho Statu, when the county uuiiuot collect (lie tux due lh louniy. Union. Pilon Is ono d thp most, f.iyorod ypotti for the location of a town, east vif the ('as c;ide raiigo bf mountains It is located in the extrenio south-eastern portion of tho famous Orniule Hondo Valley, and a more 1 deljMU.pl townsitc i annul ho found. II Ijas ab.mdance of goinl wh)coii,c water, pxcejh'nt waier power fur pianufacturing pjirpies, Is hoajthful, amfthe cljmatc will compare favorably wltlYany Of her neigh horln.tt (ovns on the caSlTii slope. of tho Bl,ic mountains. She is not populous, hut her inhabitants are wide-.iwnkc to her in terest?, and her business men arc up to the times in all tho ayenues of trade. She makes no great bustle and nojsc in tio world, but pursues tho even tenor pf her way, ami thrift and business comes nrftu ruily within her borders. Union is ths county scat of Union coun ty, and notwithstanding the great blow of her would-be rivals, will continue to be such its long as Union countv has a county seat. She is probably in closer jiroximity to the rine CrepU initios and that section, by ten or fifteen miles, tlian liakct Cjty, as the new road which will sonn'be construc ted, i? only about ,"( miles, 'while the dis tance from Baker City to the same section is from 05 to "0 miles. From almost her vpry door all along the line oT the road leading to the Pfnc creek country, are rich deposits of paying 'ire which is bolng discovered nnd developed, and are proving acquisitions of wealth to the owners, Tlo inhabitants of Pino Val ley havo been, uportnnatoly, shut ol)' from their desired trading point on account of the road running as it now does, and have been forced to do their trading at Baker City. This, they will not do ,n the future, as they are all anxious to d(v their trading at this point. Union will exert herself in a legitininte manner to secure tl0 trade of these mines, whoro it properly belongs. She will do so intelligently, honprably, and without deceit, nor will she endeavor to hoodwink those who are investigating the several routes from the O. H, it N, Co'si road to tho mines. It is tho candid opin ion of most men who have been at both Baker City, and Union, that Union is the moir naturally situated for a supply point than the former i.laec. Many letters have been received here, enquiring of tlio ad vantaget of this place, and 'the reported richness of the Pino Creek mines. Sliould the Portland Board of Trade in its wisdom select this as tho starting 'point to tho mines from the west, Union would for out strip, in importance, all other towns along the liqppf (lie O. It. it N., butwhptbor this place is selected or not, she will cpnMnuo to thrive and grow in importance as an In land town, and wjllidwqysattract her share of (fie trade from whatever source it may come. We feel confident of tho future im portance of this place from the very fact of her nearness to tho rich ditcovorics which aro daily being made. ' ' The New Hum to l'lne, u I'mrtli'iilile (iu. The viewers of tho proposed new road into the Pine Creek mines havo finished their work, having been through to the end of the. routo, ending at Cornucppia, They had excellent weather and ip conse quence too: all the time necessary tp thor oughly look out tho best and most practi cable route. Although they havo not yet made an oHlctal report, thej-say they found tho line of the road much better than they had anticipated, and tho grado at no point, except one, aul t))ot bpt a very short dis tance, will exceed ten feet to tho hundred; that tho cost will probably not reach very far into (ho thousands. Tho Ijno of the road runs nearly its chtlro length through a rich minora! bolt, and is locoted on the south side of all tho hills along which it passes, which wil insure a good nnd open road that will not bo obstructed by the snows of winter sufllelent to retard traVcl when once opened. The settlers along the roail are anxious to navo mo roau mint and none moro So than tho Inhabitants ol Pine vallcv, mnnv of whom tho viewers talked with. Tlio rhui Vidimus aro all in favor of it, except two or three, who think their personal interest should have been consulted nnd their own selfish reasons ta ken into consideration to tlio exclusion of tho public welfare-'of tho county.
